How It Begins

You are an ambassador wearing a fedora hat and carrying a hand telescope. You are also the guest of Lady Amilia, whose endless tiresome chatter you've had to endure for a fortnight. And now you're trapped with her on a long, plodding elephant ride through the Northlands. You're desperate to get away.
